A story about a 'good person' who warms up everyday life.

'When you ask for a photo, you don't have to ask
The person who said, "Shall I take a vertical picture for you too?"
'The person who talks to his companion plants while watering them'
'People who use polite language even in ChatGPT'
Anywhere in the small moments of everyday life
There is a 'good person' hiding.

This book introduces a collection of such 'good people'.

As many times as I have found a 'good person',
Every day is filled with happiness.


Wait, you too, have read this long text to the end.
“You are such a good person!!”

“Are you a good person?” This question is difficult to answer readily.
Because I can't remember what good thing I did today.
Let me rephrase the question.
“Have you ever looked under the table to find a friend’s lost item?” “Have you ever taken your earbuds out of your ears to help a coworker talk to you?” “Have you ever carelessly put a misplaced item back where it belonged at the grocery store?” If you answered “yes” to these questions, you’re a good person.
What we call a good person is not a great person.
Thanks to their consideration and kindness in our daily lives, we were able to smile a little today as well.

Here are some people who captured the warmth and good deeds we were missing.
This is a young creative team from Japan that has risen like a rising star with their cute planning skills and emotionally rich content.
They successfully held the "You're Too Kind" exhibition in Japan in 2023 and received much attention when they held an exhibition in Korea in 2024.
The book that compiles the original works of this exhibition is 『Good People Encyclopedia』.
This book is a collection of '100 good people' hidden in everyday life.
Witty illustrations that make you understand the situation immediately and everyday moments that make you think, “Oh, this is my story!” will make you laugh.
And each episode reminds me of my friends, family, and colleagues.

This is a world where being 'good' is no longer a virtue.
It is an action that requires patience and effort, but the world sometimes looks down on such kind people.
But that doesn't mean the values ​​of consideration and kindness have lost their luster.
We just overlook the consideration we receive in our busy daily lives, but there are so many good people around us.
Thanks to them, my heart was warmed several times today.
This book will remind you of the little moments you were missing.
The 100 good people collected here are definitely you and the people around you.

Publisher's Review
Good people around us
A book that helps you notice

“As you read, is there anyone who naturally comes to mind?
If so, give this book to that person.”


The authors of this book, part of a Tokyo-based creative team, have garnered attention for their exhibitions that pioneer new trends and visually express emotions.
In particular, the "You're Too Kind" exhibition, which exhibited the original version of this book, recorded a cumulative audience of 300,000 and achieved over 100 million views in short-form videos, emerging as a hot place in Japan.
The reason this exhibition was able to garner such attention in such a short period of time is because it broke down emotional boundaries and elicited empathy that transcended generations and nationalities.

Therefore, the original work of this exhibition, 『Good People Guide』, is a book that cannot be limited to a specific readership.
Because anyone, regardless of age or gender, can discover themselves and the people around them in this book.
The authors' wit makes you smile, wondering how they managed to capture even such trivial moments.
And then comes the realization that we've always lived in such kindness and consideration, only we've been missing out.
That's what the writers want to convey.
It makes me look back at things that were so close that I didn't realize how precious they were, and makes me realize how warm and worth living in this world is.


The more times you find a good person, the happier your daily life becomes!
It's close by, but we usually don't notice it
Meet 100 'good people'.


My foot was stepped on in a crowded subway.
“Oh, I’m sorry.” For some reason, the person whose foot was stepped on said sorry.
But the person who said that doesn't really care.
Because I am a person who understands uncomfortable situations and is ingrained with kindness and consideration.
We live our lives doing many acts of kindness without necessarily trying to be good people.
At a company dinner, volunteer to grill meat or immediately pick up a spoon for a colleague who drops it.
These little actions build trust in each other as good people.


This book not only introduces 100 good people, but also provides a fun quiz to find the good people in the pictures.
Every time I find a good person, I feel a thrill of knowing I got the right answer and my heart flutters as I think, “Yes, there is someone like this.”
People who say, “There are so many good people around me,” are said to be proof that they are truly good people.
You are definitely a good person.
And as the author says, the more good people you find in this book, the more you will experience yourself becoming better.
Because you realize that your careless actions were actually actions that were considerate of others.
Although only 100 people are introduced in this book, if we find more good people thanks to this book, our daily lives will surely become warmer and happier.
